TVS

Twin Vertical Saw

Developed for the Wood-Mizer Smart Log Processing line of equipment, the TVS removes
two sides of a log in one pass. The maximum log diameter that can pass through the TVS
is 16", and the maximum cutting width is 9.75".

The tilted heads help maximize blade life and allow easy slab removal onto an optional
cross transfer deck. The heads are designed for easy blade changes and maintenance.
The proven, belted wheels and 184" blade length capitalize on blade life and maintain
cutting accuracy while the industrial-grade motors provide proven performance and
reduced energy costs. The TVS takes two sides off a log, which can then be passed on
to the SVS (pages 46-47), and then on through the horizontal resaws to recover as much
lumber as possible.

Standard Operation and Material Handling Features

Chain Feed
Efficient and simple chain
design that is easily adjusted
to maximize throughout
based on log length.

Hold-Downs
Spiked steel hold-down
rollers keep the log in
position and secure.

Open Design
The open design allows
slabs and waste to fall
away from the log for
further processing.
